I generally like my double entendres to be a little more lighthearted, but such is not the case. This is just a quick note to let you know that I'll need to take a break from the blog this week to attend to some pressing family matters. I will be back before you know it, and I want to wish all of you a happy and thoughtful Memorial Day.

I was just thinking, as you'll perhaps be away a while, maybe some of your fans here can post a favorite non Chef John recipe. I have one for awesome crispy citrusy pork carnitas you can make in an hour and no one can stop eating - courtesy of my Ecuadorian street cook friends. Also a good one I call ratatouille lasagna if anyone would like it. I don't have a freakishly small spoon but I do have a freakishly small fork. Take care and all the best.

I know you are not here but I still come here everyday. That's my way of telling you I am keeping you and your loved ones in my prayer. You are an important part of my (kitchen) life. God bless you, Chef John!

Sending positive thoughts your way. There are many people out here who are wishing you all the best and would love to cook up something special just for you and your family during this time! Take care.
